List 2-3 specific goals you have for this course.
1. To better understand my students and how they learn. To be able to recognize when a student is having problems learning.
2. To implement the tools I am given in this class. I want to be able to influence and teach even the "Toughest" students.
Describe your weekly preparation plan. Be specific. What will you do each day of the week to prepare for this course.
I want to use Monday's after class to outline what needs to be done for the week. Tuesday's I would like to complete the reading and structure any papers that need to be written. I hope to be done with most of the homework by Wed. or Thurs so that if I need to I can go back and make changes or start on the reading for the next week.
Outline the study strategies that you will use to understand the material.
I'm not sure I have ever had a successful studying strategy currently. I think maybe I will be able to develop them through this class. I am trying the 4 R's and they have helped my reading already.
Explain the process you will follow if you do not understand a topic.
I think I try to research the topic and try to figure out the answer myself and if I still couldn't find the answer I would e-mail my professor and try to get some help.
Complete the following statement:
I will reach my goals in this course by, staying on top of homework assignments and attending classes so I don't fall behind on the concepts.
